When Anthropic was created, its co-founders pledged to commit 80% of their personal equity holdings in the company to philanthropic causes. As they prepare to take the company public, they appear to be walking back that pledge.

Just because your food has an American flag on the label doesn't mean it came from an American farm. Corporate loopholes have made it harder for Americans to know where their food actually comes from. It's time to bring back honest country-of-origin labeling and put American farmers first.
